Last week I showed you a few of the trees around the hotel, here's a few more:

The North Pole Post Office

A tree reflecting in the mirror...don't you just love that mirror?!

This space always gets a big display! One year it was a Polar Express theme, which I showed you HERE and another time was a big gingerbread house, which I know I have pictures of somewhere but guess I never posted it...anyways, this year was a scene from Finding Dory...did you see that movie? I thought it was hilarious! Back on topic, isn't this great?! So much detail! I think that little girl wants to climb right in!

This tree is in the main lobby and everyone likes to come and have their pictures taken here. We've got a few of our own too!

This week I am going to show you a few of the Christmas trees on display at the Hotel Roanoke:
1)

All around the hotel are Christmas trees decorated by various groups...

2)

Well not a tree but this was a train made out of 12 packs of coke with the Polar Bear driving, can you see him?! Also those are snowflakes hanging from the ceiling made from empty Coke bottles! Very creative display!

5)

This one is from the Roanoke SPCA...you can vote on the tree of your choice for a donation and the money goes to a charity...I voted for this one because you know how much I love dogs!

I will show more as Christmas approaches I am sure!

That's my 5 this week and I hope you will play along! Post 5 randoms, link back and visit others! Have a great weekend :)
